Time to go to ER: Its possible you have developed a skin infection, and that region of the body is extremely sensitive, as well as very important to protect. One of the bacteria that lives in this region of the body, called beta-hemolytic Strep can cause severe infection with in some cases septic shock. Often surgey is needed if the infection spreads inside the tissue especially in the groin. Pain? Fever?Don't wait
